A G0MMENDAB OBJECT,

1t is always more pleasing to say
q word of commentator for any
act which we conceive to be in the
line of right, than to utter condem-
nation of an act which we believe TO
be wrong. And we are now i'm
PEELED by pleasurabIe feelings to
refer approvingly to new depart
ure which we sincerely believe is
calculated to be promotive of an i'm
proved tone of society. The new
departure referred to, is the Queens
informal and quiet little tea party
Of Thursday last, which, we are
given to understand, was the first of
what is meant to be monthly insti-
tuition. The object sought, is the
bringing together of the best ele-
ments of Honolulu Society and the
creation of healthy condition of
sociality. The objec is in the highest
degree commendable and the inten-
ton worthy of all encouragement.
1t is to be hoped that the ladies of
Honolulu will do all in their power
to encourage the idea, and for the
accomplishment of the object.

SUPREME COURT OPINION.

Sir::-The Chief Justice has had
the honor to receive the commune
cation from His Maiesty's Cabinet
of Aug. oath, in which the opinion
of the Justices of the Supreme
Court is asked upon,
First, Does the Constitution pro-
hibit Notaries Public, Agents to
take Acknowledgements (of deeds)
and agents to take Acknowledgements
to labor contracts, from holding
seats in the Legislative Assembly?
In reply to this, l have to say
that Notaries Public, receiving APP
pointment by the King in Privy
Council, on the nomination of the
Minister of the Interior, being SUBJ
jects, being required to take an oath
of office, and holding office during
His Majesty's pleasure (see Secs.
1861 of the Code) are officers
and come within the prohibition of
Art. 20 of the Constitution.
Agents to take Acknowledgements
to Labor Contracts are officers APP
pointed by the Minister of the In
terror (see Chap. 80 of the Acts of
1860.
Agents to take acknowledgements
to deeds, are appointed by the Re-
gistrar of Conveyances under the
direction of the Minister of the
Interior. They hold office at the
pleasure of the appointing power.
The Registrar whose agents they
are, holds office at the pleasure of
the King. Such agents therefore
come within the description of
officers in Art. 20. The payment
by fees, does not make the holder
of an appointment less an officer
than if he were paid by salary.
They are within the mischief in
tended to be remedied by this clause
in the Constitution, which was to
prevent the Legislature from being
filed by person holding or seeking
Government appointments.
We beg leave to call attention to
the phraseology of the question,
'hold seats in the Legislative As
sembly;' and to say, that in our
view, the term of the Constitution
"Eligible" to election plainly i'm
ports that the persons referred to
are made incapable Of being elected.

Police Pourt, Honolulu.
The plaintiff produces books of

that he always inspects work before
it goes out. If he is not there, the
workman enters it on the slate, and
from there it is entered on books.
lie feels sure the work charged for
was done for the defendant. lie
was not examined as to any item in
particular, but only generally as TO
the bill. He also says that bill marked
"a" was rendered to defendant at
his request, he wanting separate
bill for the work done on q certain
carriage; this the defendant does
not deny in his evidence; but claims
that he only owes the balance of 81
on that bill, and that he has not had
any work done since June z, 1886,
or after he got that bill. II the evil
dence Of the defendants driver is
true, then he had other work done
during May and June, that is not
charged in bill A, which l find
amounted to SO, which would make
him owe plaintiff S26. The re-
mainder of plaintiffs claim of S50.25
is made up of items extending on to
June 2S. The evidence of defend
ant is very uncertain in its nature.
His answers to questions are, ~
think so, II am not sure" II
don't think / had this work DONE"
etc., etc.
am inclined to think that plain
tiff rendered him bill A, showing a
balance of 81 only due, that it is
binding on the plaintiff, as to his
whole claim; this is explained to my
satisfaction and the explanation
stands undenied.

FLAMES. THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY
FEET HIGH.

Not long ago (telegraphs the st.
Petersburg correspondent of the
London "Times,") the town of
Baku was threatened with partial
destruction by the sudden outburst
Of q natural naphtha fountain, which
swamped number of buildings,
and for some days was quite un-
manageable. Now volcano of
earth and hot mud has broken out
about ten miles from the town on
the Lok Batan, close to the Ponta
Railway Station, and on the night of
January 10Th the inhabitants of
Baku were alarmed by shock like
that of an explosion, which made all
their window frames tremhle vio-
lently, whilst towards the southwest
the sky was illuminated by an in
tense light, as of some terrible con-
Migration. A similar phenomenon
occurred on the following night. 1t
was soon discovered that an erup-
ton from Lok Batan had taken
place, and the following information
was furnished by the railway ofiici-
ais at Ponta Station: "Quite sud-
denly, at eleven o'clock at night,
the noise of an explosion was heard,
and the summit of Lok Batan shot
up an enormous column of fire, some
$50 feet high. The whole country
was instantly lit up brighter than
day, and the heat could be felt at
nearly mile from the crater.
There was scarcely any wind, so
that the column continued to as
cend quite vertically, carrying with
it, as could be seen, large dark SUBJ
stances, which appeared to fall
again into the volcano. This lasted,
with short intervals of subsistence,
all through the night and the follow
ing twenty-four hours, but luckily
the matters elected did not reach
the railway station. The volume of
muddy liquid thrown out is esti-
mated at half million cubic sojeneS
the Russian sQjene equaling seven
feet-and has spread itself over
more than square mile to a depth
of from seven feet to fourteen feet. "

A FLAW.

A couple Of weeks ago attention
was directed, in the columns of this
paper, to what was considered a
flaw in section 21, on page 8, of the
Rules and Regulations made by the
government for conducting elections
of MOBILES and Representatives. The
Objectionable part is that which
gives power to the Inspectors to
"examine the ballot so far only as
to determine whether the same con-
tains more than one ticket" Within
the past few days several gentlemen,
acting independently, have asked us
to again call attention to the matter,
at the same time intimating their
intention not to vote unless the re
gulation is amended. AS stated on
the occasion when the subject was
referred to before, the evident OBJ
ject of the regulation is simply to
prevent voter depositing two ballots
instead of one. But anyone can
readily perceive that while an in
spector is opening ballot sufficiently
to see whether it is single or double,
he may at the same time, if so in
clined, ascertain for whom it is cast;
or, at least, there is an easy posi-
bility of his doing so. This should
be carefully avoided, and no oppor-
tunity of the kind allowed for in
fringing the secrecy of vote by
ballot. So far as our experience
goes in countries where balloting is
done on slips of paper and folded,
similar to what is intended here,
there is no opening or unfolding
whatsoever, until the opening of the
ballot box, and then if two or more
are found wrapped together they are
both or all rejected as informal.
Thus while strict secrecy is pre-

A POSSIBLE DANCER.

In reference to the new regulation
of the Board of Education, requir-
ing all uncertiiicated teachers who
have not.been ten years in the SER
vice of the Board, to Submit to an
examination, it might be said that
there is possible danger Of attach
ing too much Importance to a
teachers possession OF knowledge,
while lightly estimating his cap
ability for communicating that know
ledge to his pupils. A man certainly
cannot teach what he does not know.
But he may be unable to teach what
he does know. Ability to commune
cate knowledge does not always
accompany the possession of know
ledge. An examination may dis
cover the extent Of a teachers
acquaintance with English, Arith-
metic, Geography, &C., but it can
never tell whether he or she is gifted
with that faculty which enables him
or her to become a successful teacher
of those branches. No amount of
scholarship can, of itself, constitute
teacher. Besides, no man or
woman can ever rank high as a
teacher of youth who is not gifted
with those heart qualities which
capture the affections and confidence
of children. Some of the worlds
best educators have been persons of
no great amount of learning. But
they have had the special qualilica-
tions which neither Normal Schools
nor certificates can confer upon
them. Teachers of limited literary
attainments, with the other essentials,
are preferable to those of greater
learning, but deficient in the other
essentials.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1887-08-30

Such persons IL elected do not be-
come capable by afterwards resign
ing the office. They remain dis
qualified as much so as minors, or
women, or Others not eligible, by
the provisions of Art. 81.
In the absence to-day of the
Chief Justice, i beg leave to forward
at once our opinion upon this first
question.
In regard to the second question,
we ask for further time for deliber-
alton.
